Impact: Changing the prerequisites will not have a significant impact on course
enrollment.

Rationale: All Management majors are required to take ACCT 201. With the exception
of those Management majors in the Financial concentration, Management
majors are not required to take ACCT 202. By adding the phrase "permission
of instructor", there is the flexibility to allow MGMT majors into the course who
have had ACCT 201 but not ACCT 202. This flexibility is needed as some
Management majors may choose to take ACCT 317 to fulfill their
concentration requirements.

Delete: on p. 157, the following prerequisite statement for "412 Advanced Managerial
Accounting"

Impact: Students will be able to take ACCT 412 and MGMT 380 at the same time.

Rationale: Currently students must have successfully completed MGMT 380 before
enrolling in ACCT 412. In order to be properly prepared for ACCT 412 it is
only necessary for students to have had or be concurrently enrolled in MGMT
380. Making MGMT 380 a pre- or corequisiteallows more flexibility in
student course scheduling.

#3

Delete: on p. 158, the following prerequisite statement for "415 Auditing"

Impact: Changing the prerequisites will not have a significant impact on overall
course enrollment.

Rationale: While all Accounting majors are required to take ACCT 301, 302, and 303,
the material in these courses has been restructured. As a result, the material
needed for the successful completion of ACCT 415 is contained in ACCT 301
(which is a prerequisite for 302) and ACCT 302. ACCT 303 covers special,
intermediate level accounting topics that do not necessarily lead into Auditing.
Also, due to enrollment, ACCT 303 does not always "make" as a class.
Changing the prerequisite from ACCT 303 to ACCT 302 will give the students
more flexibility in course scheduling.

#4

Delete: on p. 158, the following prerequisite statement for "416 Advanced
Accounting".

Impact: Changing the prerequisites will not have a significant impact on overall
course enrollment.

Rationale: While all Accounting majors are required to take ACCT 301, 302, and 303,
the material in these courses has been restructured. As a result, the material
needed for the successful completion of ACCT 416 is contained in ACCT 301
(which is a prerequisite for 302) and ACCT 302. ACCT 303 covers special,
intermediate level accounting topics that do not necessarily lead into
Advanced Accounting. Also, due to enrollment, ACCT 303 does not always
"make" as a class. Changing the prerequisite from ACCT 303 to ACCT 302
will give the students more flexibility in course scheduling.

#5

Change: on p. 158, the course number for "308 International Management and
Marketing Strategies (3)"

To: "398 International Management and Marketing Strategies (3)"

and insert the new title with the old course description on page 161 after the
entry for "394 Project Management."

Add: to the end of the course description for the newly created 398 the following:

No credit given to students who have credit for MGMT 308. Fall and Spring.

Impact: The change in course number will create a more logical course number
sequence, since MGMT 350 is the prerequisite to MGMT 308. The course
content, prerequisites, and times offered remain the same.

Rationale: MGMT 350 is the prerequisite to MGMT 308. This has caused some
confusion among students since a higher course number is a prerequisite for
a lower course number. Changing the course number of MGMT 308 to a
number higher than 350 will eliminate this confusion.

#6

Delete: on p. 159, the following prerequisite statement for "350 Marketing Principles".

Pre- or corequisite: MGMT 220.

Replace: with the following

Prerequisite: MGMT 220. Fall and Spring.

Impact: Changing the prerequisites will not have a significant impact on course
enrollment.

Rationale: All Management majors are required to take MGMT 220, which is a basic
introductory management course. Because of the skills taught in MGMT 220
such as basic management terminology, concepts, and oral presentation
techniques, students should have MGMT 220 before enrolling in any other
Management course. Last year's catalog change should have made MGMT
220 a prerequisite, but listed it as a pre- or corequisite due to a typing error in
preparing the APC document.

#7

Delete: on p. 160, the following prerequisite statements for "386 Systems and
Information Management".

Impact: Changing the prerequisites will not have a significant impact on course
enrollment.

#8

Delete: on p. 161, the course title and description for "394 Project Management".

Replace: with the following

394 Project Management/Occupational Safety (3)

Principles and concepts of project management as they relate to the
quantitative skills of PERT, CPM, and other network methods of scheduling
projects with attention given to compliance with OSHA legislation and NIOSH
guidelines. Course emphasis is placed on using these directives in planning,
and on qualitative factors as well as the traditional quantitative methods.
Computer-aided as well as manual approaches to these topics are presented.
Prerequisites: MGMT 220; STAT 185 or 225. Even years Spring.

Impact: The additional occupational safety material was included and successfully
covered in the course taught Spring 1998.

Rationale: Feedback from industrial engineering management and operations
management graduates indicate that it is essential that students be exposed
to the basics of occupational health and the importance of compliance with
OSHA legislation. It was determined that not only was it feasible and
appropriate to cover the occupational safety material in this course, but
approximately 12 hours of time were available to cover this material as a
result of restructuring the course. In Spring 1998, the instructor experimented
with including the material and was able to cover the new occupational safety
material in addition to the required project management material.
